Question: What do the songs ‘Feelin’ Alright’,
‘Only You Know and I Know’, ‘We Just Disagree’, ‘Every
Woman In The World’, ‘World In Changes’, ’Shouldn’t
Have Took More Than You Gave’ and brilliant guitar work on Jimi Hendrix's
‘Along The Watchtower’, The Rolling Stones' ‘Beggar’s
Banquet’, George Harrison's ‘All Things Must Pass’, Paul McCartney's
‘Listen To What The Man Said’ all have in common?

At age 18, the Worcester England native teamed up with Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi
and Chris Wood to form the legendary band Traffic whose profound influence over rock
music, and generations of fans remains unquestioned even today.

At 19, Mason penned the song ‘Feelin' Alright’ which was first
recorded by Traffic and has since become a global anthem; recorded by dozens of artists
since, including Joe Cocker who had a major international hit with the song in 1969.
It is still a high point of his live show today.

After extensive touring throughout the UK and Europe, Mason departed Traffic after
their second album and headed for the USA to pursue a solo career. From there he struck
international gold with his debut album ‘Alone Together’; which is considered
a seminal rock classic.

Followed by five highly successful albums (CBS/Sony) including ‘Dave Mason’
and ‘Mariposa De Oro’, four of which received gold albums in the US, his
next album ‘Let It Flow’ has sold millions of copies over the years and
contained another major Mason classic "We Just Disagree".

In addition to performing to sold-out audiences and being a permanent staple in
record collections and hearts of fans around the world, Mason is known for his guitar
work on a number of landmark albums such as The Rolling Stones' ‘Beggar’s
Banquet’, George Harrison's ‘All Things Must Pass’, Paul McCartney's
‘Listen To What The Man Said’ and Jimi Hendrix's "Electric Ladyland".
The rock standard ‘All Along the Watchtower’ features Dave playing acoustic
guitar, and is a favorite in Dave's live show and with fans.

Dave Mason's career spans nearly several generations of rock eras and has encompassed
producing, performing and song writing, as well as being one of rock's most respected
guitar players. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a founding
member of Traffic, and is considered an important figure in rock music history and
often referred to as the Silent Giant.
